[Geoghegan] allows his film’s message about intolerance and oppression to emanate naturally from the action, thereby letting the proceedings gradually transform into a revisionist fantasy of defiance, expulsion and vengeance. Read full review

Mohawk is exciting on its own merit. Seen as a piece of Geoghegan’s growing filmography, it’s positively thrilling, a great extension of its author’s fascinations. Read full review

Geoghegan and Hendrix have the right instincts, which goes a long way, given that their vision is slightly limited by their budget. I didn't just fall for this type of film: I also admire its creators' knack for conveying what they like most about their characters through pulpy dialogue, impressive shot choices, and satisfyingly gory set pieces.

Mohawk takes its time revealing all its generic elements, but at its high point dares to vault toward something grander and more mythic than action-adventure realism. Read full review

Respectful of its heroes' suffering and willing (for a while, at least) not to afford them the usual big-screen satisfactions, it mourns a centuries-old genocide through the torment of three young protagonists. Read full review

Mohawk is a gripping and despairing action picture, about how we can't seem to stop trying to destroy those we distrust — including ourselves. Read full review

Whatever ideas Mohawk had behind it, whatever the filmmaker saw in the cast, especially Ms. Horn (think Grace Slick circa “White Rabbit”) not much of a movie came out of the effort. Read full review

This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. This simply was not a well made film. The only reason the critical reviews are good is due to the subject material and the fact that critics are easily subject to manipulation by making a mediocre film with pop culture political ideals in it. I'm all for those ideals, but I am not for mediocrity masked by regurgitating them to the public.
Female empowerment is an important aspect of our culture, but the heavy handedness with which most films do it nowadays is cringingly bad. Only the most simple minded find anything new or empowering in the basic ideas spouted by the writhing cacophony of screeching voices in 2019. Thos film is far more captain marvel than Mad Max. A halfwits idea of relevance as opposed to something well made. The poor acting and costumes take one out of the film every 5 minutes or so, and the story is as heavy handed as Lenny petting a rabbit.
The film devolved into nonsense when your pregnant "protaganist" survived a gunshot wound to the chest. It became a ludicrous attempt at badassery after that point. The beginning was entertaining, but after a point it became a film that only co scorned itself with making a point as opposed to an entertaining piece of art. I feel amateur filmmakers know they will receive accolades for regurgitating entry level nonsense in 2019, when art has become about virtue signaling instead of making art. NONE of these characters were sympathetic and the only joy of the film comes from seeing a number of awful people get killed unfortunate they didnt kill everyone off...then it may have been an enjoyable hate watch.… Expand
